Cubs Fans

ESPN.com is currently running a front page headline story on Cubs fans. Here is a link to a nice video in the article:

There are hundreds of user discussion comments regarding the video and story. The thread at one point was criticizing the parents who named their son Wrigley Fields. In response to that was the following comment by user vweaver69. I couldn't have said it any better:

Beautiful piece. My youngest son is named Ryne. It doesn't matter that 95% of everyone we introduce him to calls him Ryan... those who are Cubs fans...they get it. There's no one we've met who knows who Sandberg is, that thinks we're crazy for naming our son Ryne. I'm sure it's the same for Wrigley's parents. Maybe every Cub's fan wouldn't name their kid Wrigley, but they get it. They're not crazy. We're not crazy. We're Cubs fans.

It is such a great comment regarding Sandberg that ESPN.com has it currently on the front page as the featured quote. I am not sure how much longer it will be the featured comment so here is a screenshot:


GO CUBS GO!
